Farewell to Pocket

After much reflection, we’ve made the difficult decision to retire Pocket, our beloved read-it-later and content discovery app. This means the Pocket web app, mobile apps (Android, iOS, macOS), and browser extensions will all be phased out.


Why we’re saying goodbye

For years, Pocket has helped millions of people save and discover stories worth reading. But the way people browse, save, and engage with content online has changed. To better serve today’s habits, we’re focusing our efforts on projects that align with how people use the web now.

Many of the ideas pioneered in Pocket live on. Pocket’s content discovery work helped shape the trusted recommendations you already see in Firefox today, and those experiences will continue to grow stronger. At the same time, built-in features like Tab Groups and improved bookmarks now offer seamless ways to organize and revisit reading lists directly in the browser.


Looking ahead

Mozilla is unique: Firefox is the only major browser not funded by a billionaire. Our independence allows us to build products that put people, not profits, first. That also means we need to be deliberate about where we invest our energy, so we can make the biggest positive impact on the internet’s future.


Pocket’s legacy

What began as a simple read-it-later app grew into something much more. Since Mozilla acquired Pocket in 2017, we’ve built robust content curation and recommendation tools that helped millions discover high-quality writing.

Over the past eight years, Pocket’s recommendations have expanded to more than a dozen countries and five languages, connecting tens of millions of readers each month with articles worthy of their time.


The future of recommendations in Firefox

Although Pocket is winding down, Mozilla remains committed to bringing trusted, high-quality content to Firefox users. We’ll continue our “algotorial” approach—combining machine learning with human editorial oversight—to surface engaging, reliable recommendations on the Firefox New Tab page.


What’s next for users

  • Exporting saves: You can export your saved items until October 8, 2025. After that date, all user data will be permanently deleted. Visit the [Pocket support page] for help.

  • Premium subscriptions:

    • Monthly plans will be canceled automatically before the next billing cycle.

    • Annual plans will end on July 8, 2025, with prorated refunds issued to the original payment method.

  • Pocket Hits newsletter: Starting mid-June 2025, Pocket Hits will be renamed Ten Tabs. The same editorial team will continue curating high-quality stories, now powered by Firefox. If you’d prefer not to receive it, you can unsubscribe at any time.


Pocket has been a companion to millions of readers around the world, and we’re deeply grateful for the community that made it so meaningful. While this chapter is closing, our commitment to a healthier, more human-centered internet continues—through Firefox and beyond.

These exclusive domains are already owned but available for purchase, offering you a shortcut to a powerful online presence. Why Choose a Premium Domain? Instant Brand Boost: Premium domains are like instant credibility boosters. They command attention, inspire trust, and make your business look established from day one.

In some cases, it may be possible to negotiate the price of a premium domain.
